Reborn to Make Games: My Girlfriend is a Game Streamer

A few "Good evening, Brother Lou" comments floated by sparsely, but most of the comments were completely different from Jiang Yiting's prepared opening remarks.

-Lou Ge turned on the camera!

Holy crap? They showed their face!

-???? Lou Ge is actually a girl?

"Yes, the game we encountered today was a bit special, and I felt that showing my face during the live stream might be more effective."

Jiang Yiting smiled at the camera, her tone relaxed as if she were talking about the nice weather: "I had planned to do this before, it just so happens that today is the perfect day."

Chen Bainian, sitting in front of his computer, felt a slight stirring in his heart upon hearing these words.

He realized that he, this reborn butterfly, seemed to have indirectly prompted Jiang Yiting to prematurely unveil an important chapter in her broadcasting career.

What do you mean I 'actually a girl'?

Jiang Yiting couldn't help but chuckle when she saw the comment. She lightly tapped the table with her finger: "I've been streaming for so long, and you guys really consider me a brother?"

She raised an eyebrow and asked a question in a perfectly timed teasing tone, instantly bridging the gap between them.

While the game was loading, she calmly joked and bantered with the comments.

She easily dispelled the audience's surprise at her gender and further solidified the image of "Brother Lou" as a handsome and approachable character.

"Can we still call him 'Brother Lou'? Of course we can!"

She smiled, a hint of smugness in her eyes: "I've said it before, I like this title. It sounds friendly and approachable."

Looking at her on the screen, Chen Bainian had to admit that her high ponytail drew a neat arc along the back of her full head, and a few unruly strands of hair fell on the side of her neck, adding a touch of liveliness.

Her decisive and straightforward personality complements her, creating a highly attractive visual appeal.

"Today, I'm going to introduce a domestically developed indie game called 'Getting Over It'..."

Before Jiang Yiting could finish speaking, the game started, the screen went black, and then the manufacturer's logo appeared...

"The Longevity Studio..."

Jiang Yiting subconsciously read it aloud.

After reading it aloud, he paused for a moment, then his lips twitched almost imperceptibly. It took a great deal of self-control to prevent him from losing control of his facial expression.

The words "longevity," "hundred years," and "long life" flashed through her mind in an instant, and her inner thoughts surged: Just how deep is this person's obsession with "living a long life"?

Chen Bainian didn't give her much time to grumble. He seized the opportunity and decisively fired two "rockets".

This is currently the most expensive gift on the Douyu platform.

A massive gift effect instantly swept across the entire live stream room.

The platform-wide banner announcements brought a large amount of external traffic to this newly popular live stream.

"Ah, thank you... for the two rockets from 'Longevity Games Studio'." Jiang Yiting quickly regained her composure and smoothly read out her thanks.

She reacted quickly; the moment she finished expressing her gratitude, she immediately changed the subject, looking at the camera with a sly smile: "Producer Chen, you've already given us gifts, aren't you going to give our viewers in the live stream some more substantial perks?"

"Then I'll give away 50 CD keys in your live stream tonight."

With his newly changed ID, Chen Bainian posted a comment.

Due to limitations of the Steam platform, even as the producer, he needed to purchase the CD key himself if he wanted to send it.

50 CDKs is a significant investment, equivalent to the price of two rockets.

However, compared to traditional promotion methods, this is already a very cost-effective approach.

Chen Bainian believes that this investment will soon be recouped through game sales.

The two rockets had an immediate effect, with the number of viewers in the live stream jumping from just over a hundred to over 100 in an instant, and still climbing.

Jiang Yiting immediately seized the opportunity, pointing her slender finger to the upper right corner of the screen: "Friends who haven't followed yet, please do so! I'll count down from three and randomly select 20 followers who have both followed and commented!"

The remaining 30 prizes will be drawn in batches during tonight's live stream! So stay tuned for a better chance of winning!

This part is the strategy that the two of them discussed in the afternoon.

The general plan was proposed by Chen Bainian based on his experience watching the live broadcast in later generations.

Some adjustments were made to account for the limitations of the era.

It's also a prime example of achieving great things with minimal investment.

The rules of the "comment lottery game" are simple and straightforward, yet they instantly resonate with the most common desire of viewers to participate.

What if?

Longtime fans casually forwarded the post out of a sense of support and a desire to join in the fun.

Passersby who were "blasted" in by the two magnificent rockets on the banner throughout the station were particularly impressed.

It's just a matter of following and commenting; it's free, and it won't cost you anything.

As a result, the density of bullet comments changed dramatically.

At the beginning, the content was sparse and easy to see, but it quickly turned into a dense state where you had to squint to barely make out a few items, with the content constantly scrolling and refreshing.

"Three, two... Everyone, speak up more, flood the comments section, and the chances of me taking a screenshot will be much greater..."

Jiang Yiting deliberately lengthened the countdown timer to give more viewers in the live stream a chance to comment, thus extending the live stream's popularity for an even longer period.

"One! Okay... 'Longevity Games Studio'? Wait, Producer Chen, how did you get involved yourself? No, no, you need to avoid suspicion, this doesn't count!"

Looking at the screenshot, she deliberately made a sarcastic remark in an exaggerated tone.

Chen Bainian couldn't help but laugh behind the screen and replied with a comment: "Slip of the hand, participation is what matters."

This unspoken, remote interaction brought the atmosphere in the live stream to another small climax.

Jiang Yiting quickly published the list of winners based on the screenshot and clearly explained the verification and collection process. The whole operation was smooth and efficient, and it was impossible to tell that this was her first time conducting such an activity.

"Don't worry if you didn't get one. We have 30 more activation codes to give away later. Keep watching our live stream tonight, and I'll be giving them away to you all."

Watching Jiang Yiting navigate the live stream with ease, Chen Bainian leaned back in his chair, feeling a sense of感慨 (gan3kai3, a complex emotion encompassing both admiration and reflection).

At this time in the previous life, "Twelfth Floor" had not yet appeared, and its popularity should have been far less than it is today.

This reborn butterfly seems to have stirred up a little storm...

-----------------

Jiangcheng, Douyu Headquarters, Hosting Area Operations Team.

"Boss, something's up! The popularity curve for 'The Twelfth Floor's' live stream skyrocketed as soon as it started, increasing tenfold in just five minutes!"

"A young operations manager staring at the data monitoring screen shouted."

Supervisor Luo Yu immediately adjusted his glasses and leaned over to look at the real-time data stream on the screen: "Have you ruled out the possibility of inflated metrics?"

"Preliminary investigations have revealed that a high percentage of users are participating in the interactive bullet comments, and gift revenue is concentrated on a few large donations that are announced site-wide, which doesn't seem like bots. More importantly..."

The operations team switched the page: "The number of new followers in her live stream and the average viewing time per user are also increasing rapidly..."

Luo Yu looked at Jiang Yiting's bright and clear face with her high ponytail on the screen and tapped his finger on the table.

For the console gaming section, which doesn't have a large user base and isn't highly regarded, the emergence of a streamer who is both good-looking and knows how to effectively attract and interact with viewers is a godsend.

"Raise the priority of her live stream and add her to the key monitoring list."

If the data stabilizes, we can consider giving two promotional slots to test the waters.
